Breast Reduction
Breast reduction is a successful procedure indicated for those patients who have enlarged breasts and nipples causing them discomfort as well as back problems, and making it difficult for them to wear suitable clothing. They often suffer from sweating and rashes under the breasts and indentation in the shoulder region caused by bra straps. Women with enlarged breasts who play sports are often inhibited and embarrassed. We have observed that the happiest patients at the Eden Institute of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery who have undergone breast reduction have experienced improvement in their posture and their overall appearance as well as a boost in their self-esteem.
Here at The Eden Institute of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery we pride ourselves on treating our patients with utmost respect and attention, so that you can address your breast concerns in a safe and caring environment, obtain honest and state-of-the-art expert advice and have a happy and satisfied outcome for your problem.
The procedure takes 2-3 hours under general anaesthetic, with patients required to stay in hospital for 2-3 days and recovery usually completed within 1-2 weeks.
Possible Side Effects and Risks: Discomfort, bruising, swelling, numbness, bleeding, infection, scars, asymmetry and loss of feeling in the nipple.
